Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor-Chapter 1263: He is Fang Bai!

Speaking of which, Fang Bai’s history with Tianji Sect is rather deep.

Back in Tiansheng Continent, when Fang Bai, together with Green Bamboo Stronghold, launched an attack on Swiftwind Valley, he encountered obstruction by Feng Lingtian’s sister and Tianji Sect’s Direct Disciple, Feng Peilan, and ended up killing her with his own hands.

Afterward, Fang Bai took a sea vessel to Shenwu Continent, and when the ship docked at a port controlled by Tianji Sect, he faced difficulties from a group of Sect Disciples led by Ying Guangping. Fang Bai struck again, killing Ying Guangping with a blow of his palm.

For a prestigious first-grade Sect to have both a Direct Disciple and a Steward killed consecutively, especially by an obscure Martial Artist, this news incited fury in Sect Master Xuan Tianji of Tianji Sect. He immediately dispatched several high-ranking members of his Sect to hunt down Fang Bai.

Additionally, Xuan Tianji offered a bounty of ten million top-grade Essence Stones to the entire True Martial Realm, declaring that whoever could bring back Fang Bai’s head would claim all ten million top-grade Essence Stones for themselves.

Ten million top-grade Essence Stones is no small sum; even Universe Level Experts are tempted, so the bounty offered by Tianji Sect caused quite a stir in the True Martial Realm. Tens of thousands of Sect Disciples and Loose Cultivators were mobilized, searching for Fang Bai’s whereabouts everywhere.

Martial Artists from Shenwu Continent have always been proud, never considering Martial Artists from other continents a threat. Even if someone like Fang Bai, an Individual Cultivation Martial Artist from Tiansheng Continent, had once killed Ying Guangping—a beginner Universe Level Expert—he still couldn’t catch the eye of Shenwu Continent’s Martial Artists.

Those who wished to claim the bounty of ten million Essence Stones were full of confidence, believing that as long as they could find Fang Bai, they could easily dispatch him to his doom.

Although Fang Bai killed Ying Guangping, a Cosmos Level Martial Artist at the early stage, his strength should not be underestimated. However, according to some Tianji Sect Disciples who had encountered Fang Bai, the latter was only in his early twenties. Many Shenwu Continent Martial Artists thought that, as a young Loose Cultivator from Tiansheng Continent without the full support of a Sect behind him, even if his talent was against heaven’s will, reaching a midpoint Universe Level Cultivation would already be incredibly impressive.

In the history of the True Martial Realm, it’s rare for Martial Artists in their early twenties to achieve the Universe Level Realm. The most prodigious one is said to be a gifted individual from the legendary Innate Sect, who reached the high Universe Level Realm by the age of twenty-five and eventually ascended to the Innate Realm, becoming a peerless powerhouse.

As for an Individual Cultivation Martial Artist like Fang Bai, who lacks the continuous supply of Cultivation Resources provided by an Innate Sect and doesn’t have access to high-level Martial Arts Techniques, how could he possibly be compared with the chosen ones from the large Sects without some incredible stroke of luck?

What if Fang Bai is a Universe Level mid-stage expert? Just rally more compatriots, outnumber him, and he can be killed, winning that ten million top-grade Essence Stones.

Many Martial Artists shared this line of thinking and set out to track down Fang Bai.

Of course, if those Martial Artists knew about what Fang Bai had done in the Forest of Myriad Medicines, the vast majority of them would likely turn into scared turtles, hiding their heads.

Having slain hundreds of Spirit Beasts, including two three-thousand-year-old ones, and being a formidable existence comparable to those of a first-grade Sect, Fang Bai was not someone an average Martial Artist could afford to provoke?

Even first-grade Sects with immense overall strength had to weigh the consequences when facing a free-spirited Loose Cultivator like Fang Bai, who was bound by no constraints and possessed formidable strength.

Because any smart Loose Cultivator facing a powerful Sect would never choose open confrontation. Instead, they would resort to all sorts of tactics to launch surprise attacks, causing headaches for any Sect.

Tianji Sect’s bounty had been issued, and tens of thousands of martial artists in the True Martial Realm desired to exchange Fang Bai’s head for ten million Essence Stones. However, Fang Bai seemed to have vanished into thin air, with no one able to find him.

Little did they know, ever since Fang Bai arrived in the Shenwu Continent, he had delved into the deep forests, searching for various cultivation resources. Whenever he encountered martial artists who wished him harm, he would swiftly suppress them with his power. Thus, it was only now, when he showed up in Divine Fire Town, that his whereabouts were finally revealed.

However, at this moment, the hundreds of martial artists who surrounded him were actually targeting Sun Guangyi and other disciples of Golden Crow Manor, paying no attention to the young and seemingly low-cultivation level Fang Bai.

"What do you want to do?"

Sun Guangyi scanned the surrounding martial artists with a sharp gaze, bellowing in a heavy tone while his Essence Energy pushed outward, forcing back several martial artists who were slowly encroaching.

The group of over a hundred martial artists surrounding Sun Guangyi and the other disciples of Golden Crow Manor was a mixed bunch, including Sect Disciples as well as Individual Cultivation Martial Artists. They had been temporarily cobbled together to form the so-called "Justice Alliance" to contest other alliances gathered near Divine Fire Town, vying for a share of spoils in the upcoming struggle for the Essence Stone Vein in Eternal Death Zone.

Among the hundreds of martial artists in the "Justice Alliance," the majority were Cosmos Level Martial Artists, with more than a dozen Universe Level beginners, and the strongest were two Universe Level mid-rank martial artists.

Such a force was more than sufficient to deal with Sun Guangyi and the other dozen or so disciples from Golden Crow Manor, but Sun Guangyi and his companions seemed fearless, their eyes on the martial artists of the "Justice Alliance" even carried a hint of schadenfreude.

In the eyes of Sun Guangyi and the other Golden Crow Manor disciples, Fang Bai, who had slaughtered hundreds of fierce Spirit Beasts all the way in the Forest of Myriad Medicines, was just like a god of slaughter. They believed that if these clueless martial artists around really dared to make a move, it could very likely infuriate Fang Bai.

The moment Fang Bai’s blood-colored long knife, brimming with sky-high Evil Qi, was drawn, a scene of Corpse Mountain Blood Sea Killing would surely unfold, and it was uncertain how many would survive in the end.

Just thinking about that terrifying blood-colored long knife, which could release Evil Qi and influence people’s will, even Sun Guangyi felt a chill run down his spine.

"What are we doing? Heh heh... Of course, we’re capturing you to exchange for some cultivation resources from Golden Crow Manor! In the past, we wouldn’t dare to provoke the Golden Crow Manor, but now it is beleaguered and could hardly save itself. So why not take advantage of this opportunity?"

A Cosmos Level mid-rank martial artist, with strength comparable to Sun Guangyi, sneered with a sinister smile. Suddenly bringing his Spiritual Artifact across horizontally, his eyes filled with a menacing glare, he said to Sun Guangyi, "I advise you to surrender without any resistance, to avoid suffering! Otherwise... you all will die! Don’t keep any hope—look around, all the martial artists consider your Golden Crow Manor as enemies! Even if we spare you, other martial artists will target you just the same!"

Sun Guangyi looked around and indeed found that many martial artists in Divine Fire Town were eyeing him and the other Golden Crow Manor disciples with hostility.

"He... he..."

Just then, one of the Tianji Sect disciples suddenly pointed at Fang Bai and exclaimed in shock: "He’s the one who killed Steward Ying! He is Fang Bai!"
